1GHz+ Cortex-A9 Implementation with ARM Artisan POP
I will be talking at ARM® Technology Conference (Techcon) this week about our latest Cortex-A9 implementation project, which I am pretty excited about. Cortex-A9 is a scalable high-performance, low-power multiprocessor from ARM. It is ideally suited for applications which require high levels of performance, where the power-budget or battery life is critical. ARM implementation teams have been pushing the frequency achievable on the Cortex-A9 on various process nodes like TSMC CLN40G, Common Platform (CP) CMOS32LP etc. Recently we implemented a dual-core configuration of Cortex-A9 processor in-house and it achieved 1GHz+ frequency in the CMOS32LP process at low power. The chip was fabricated using the Samsung 32nm HKMG process, and the silicon is fully functional and worked as expected.
